umdterps29 Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 Rates are picking up here in McHenry. Flake size is growing a bit as well. I'd guess we are pushing 1" and all surfaces are covered but with the blowing snow it's going to be very hard to measure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you haven't gotten a more complete answer, its "military" time aka 24 hr time, and the z is for Zulu, aka Greenwich Mean Time. In EDT you either subtract 4 or 16 depending on morning or afternoon (just do whichever doesn't make it negative), and in EST subtract 5 or 17. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
